I want to enter a line of text, hit the tab key, enter a number, hit return to go to the next line and repeat, thereby creating a small table. Simple. 

However, when I do exactly this and send the message (HTML), in the message received the tabs are ignored and replaced by single spaces, turning the previously aligned data into a jumbled mess in the recipients' email message

Having lost the ability to create tables in email with this limited version of Outlook (I switched from PC to Mac), tabbing seems to be the only way to create a quick table in Outlook:Mac email messages, short of the ridiculous idea of creating one in another application and cutting and pasting. 

How then do tabs work? It seems pointless to use a tab if it is ignored or reformatted in the recipient's email.
